Songs

Take equal parts melody from Tom Petty, The Beatles, 3rd Eye Blind, and mix in the guitar stylings of greats like Eddie Van Halen, Eric Clapton (the inspiration for the album title), and Steve Vai, and you might come close to describing Curt's music. A musician from the American south, Curt Granger cut his teeth on the classic bands of the 70's and 80's such as Boston, KISS, Aerosmith, Thin Lizzy, Van Halen, Journey, and King's X.

Regarding the new album, Curt says, "This is something I've always longed to do, ever since I recorded my first overdub on an old Fostex 4-track. Not only the 'total creative control' aspect appealed to me, but the opportunity to wear multiple 'hats' and think outside the norm of how a guitar player usually thinks. I'm very fortunate that I could work on this album at home during breaks and downtown from my other projects. I'm stoked, to say the least."
